Drag 'n Drop Editing
   
  Click to View Larger ImageKeyboard shortcuts aside, The HDR24/96's GUI also allows really easy and powerful drag 'n drop editing. Pull a region out of the region list and drop it onto the track view. Snap the region to Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames or Bars:Beats:Ticks. Pull a region from one track and join it to another to create a new region. Slip regions, trim their beginning or end points. Turn on 'Loop' and drag a region's start or end points as far as you need. Hip-hop Heaven! All of these edit commands are possible without going anywhere near a menu. It's simply a click of the mouse.
   
Real Digital Audio Editing Power
   
  Click to View Larger ImageHere's where the rubber hits the road. The HDR24/96 GUI's context sensitive mouse changes from one type of tool to another based on where you move it. The most complex editing tasks become a drag 'n drop breeze. Pull the top right or left corner of a region to create fade-ins and fade-outs. Right click to select the fade curves. Push one region into another and instantly create a cross-fade with your selection of nine different fade curve combinations. The HDR24/96 re-draws all waveforms in real-time as you edit. You can't do this with a 20x2 LCD window or JavaScript™ application running on a PC!
   
Volume Automation
   
  Click to View Larger ImageThe HDR24/96 let's you automate the volume of each region by creating a region volume envelope. Click to add as many volume points as you need. Click again to drag them into position, creating as complex a mix as you can imagine. It mutes, too. Got an analog console that lacks level and mute automation? Not any more! Go back and lay those old 2" sessions into the HDR24/96 and get the mix you always wanted.
   
Scrubbing Mouse - and More
   
  You can scrub all 24 tracks of audio on the HDR24/96 from the jog/shuttle wheel of our d8b digital mixer, Remote 48 (coming soon-ish), or any other MMC wheel. But scrubbing gets really cool with the HDR24/96's mouse! Listen to what you're doing as you drag to spot edits and set markers. It's all real-time and designed to make you more creative and productive.
